Materials Design Innovations in Optimizing Cellular Behavior on Melt Electrowritten (MEW) Scaffolds

Abstract: The field of melt electrowriting (MEW) has seen significant progress, bringing innovative advancements to the fabrication of biomaterial scaffolds, and creating new possibilities for applications in tissue engineering and beyond. Multidisciplinary collaboration across materials science, computational modeling, AI, bioprinting, microfluidics, and dynamic culture systems offers promising new opportunities to gain deeper insights into complex biological systems. As the focus shifts towards personalized medicine and reduced reliance on animal models, the multidisciplinary approach becomes indispensable. This review provides a concise overview of current strategies and innovations in controlling and optimizing cellular responses to MEW scaffolds, highlighting the potential of scaffold material, MEW architecture, and computational modeling tools to accelerate the development of efficient biomimetic systems. Innovations in material science and the incorporation of biologics into MEW scaffolds have shown great potential in adding biomimetic complexity to engineered biological systems. These techniques pave the way for exciting possibilities for tissue modeling and regeneration, personalized drug screening, and cell therapies.
